Here’s a fun 92 whitelabel I don’t hear much mention of, though Mickey Finn and Kenny Ken both used to play it. The artist behind this (DJ Funky T) went on to do a solid EP on No U Turn, but this one is a bit rougher / definitely 92 white label style. “The Guvnor” has breakbeats ala PBB “Work the Box”, a good female vocal sample, MC snippet from a rave (which one? which MC?), some mental rave synths, and a simple-but-ruff piano line. All the 92 hardcore elements you could ask for!
The other side (“Pure Steain”) is more of an overt sampleadelic mashup, hence the title. That side mixes the pitch-shifted breaks from “Terminator” with the pianos from “Far Out” if memory serves me right… not the most effective combo to my ears, but a solid example of the “no rules” thing going on at the time with tunes! Luckily, this is pretty easy and not too pricey to track down, so well worth it.
Funky T – The Guvnor
That female vox sample is from Pink Floyd, I’m sure of it, great tune, love it
Absolute tuneage!
I used to love this one back in the day.
I love it even more now.
Keep up the great work!!!
like the Pink Floyd sample in this
the MC sample must be Lenni
Deffo’ Lenni as the MC… No doubt describing himself as ‘The Guvnor’…
What a c@nt!
Lenni is referring to Mickey Finn as the Guvnor as he always did
